The wedding is off, but the love story is just beginning.

Betrayed the night before his wedding by the supposed boy of his dreams, Ethan Robinson escapes the devastating fallout by going on his honeymoon alone to the other side of the world. Hard of hearing and still struggling with the repercussions of being late-deafened, traveling by himself leaves him feeling painfully isolated with his raw, broken heart.

Clay Kelly never expected to be starting life over in his forties. He got hitched young, but now his wife has divorced him and remarried, his kids are grown, and he’s left his rural Outback town. In a new career driving a tour bus on Australia’s East Coast, Clay reckons he's happy enough. He enjoys his cricket, a few beers, and a quiet life. If he's a bit lonely, it's not the end of the world.

Clay befriends Ethan, hoping he can cheer up the sad-eyed young man, and a crush on an unattainable straight guy is exactly the safe distraction Ethan needs. Yet as the days pass and their connection grows, long-repressed desires surface in Clay, and they are shocked to discover romance sparking. Clay is the sexy, rugged man of Ethan’s dreams, and as the clock counts down on their time together, neither wants this honeymoon to end.

Honeymoon for One by Keira Andrews is a gay romance featuring an age gap, sexual awakening, a slow burn of newfound friends to lovers, first times, and of course a happy ending.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"I love the flow of this story, as the two men slowly peel away their pasts and we meet Clay's family and learn about his life, and adore the extended ending and epilogue. This is a beautiful love story beautifully constructed and lovingly told, and I highly recommend it. 5 stars." ~ Gay Book Reviews

"This story is perfect on so many levels: Clay's sexual awakening; the hot but ever-so-tender sex once the men get together; the complex secondary characters, particularly Clay's daughter Sam and his dog Gilly; the way Clay looks out for Ethan always; and the way Ethan is willing to risk everything to be with Clay." ~ My Fiction Nook

"I appreciated incorporating a character who is dealing with a physical challenge and Andrews does a great job helping us see the world from Ethan's perspective.... If you are looking for a story of two guys starting over and finding themselves in the process, Honeymoon for One is a good choice." ~ Joyfully Jay LGBTQ Romance Reviews

"Another truly wonderful romance from Keira Andrews. She never fails to bring all the emotional connections to her love stories and this one is no exception.... This is a perfect book for snuggling up with by a cosy fire. Oh and a note on the dialogue-perfect. Clay spoke Aussie with a flair and an authenticity which I recognised from my own experiences Down Under." ~ Mirrigold Mutterings & Musings

5.0 out of 5 stars An Endless Honeymoon
Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2023

KA certainly knows how to make us fall in love, over and over again. Though I would not classify this as low angst, as the characters go through a lot (and I cried more than once), it is so wonderful and sweet I would recommend it to everyone.
Ethan has been through serious emotional trauma, stemming from the early loss of his family, the drastic physical changes he's gone through with his hearing loss, and culminating in the destruction of the last of his support system. He takes a chance on going on a trip across the world alone, brave for anyone and particularly so for him. In Australia, he meets a kind, generous man who doesn't make him feel like a burden or great irritation due to the fact that his world functions a little differently from everyone else's.
Clay is a teddy bear. He has experienced emotional distress of his own, both in the recent past with his divorce, and as a child. While it has hurt him, it has not made him bitter or jaded. He is kind for the sake of kindness, and when he sees the sadness and isolation Ethan is experiencing, he wants to make him smile again, full dimples. 😊
Their journey together is beautiful, and while I don't love an age gap, it was not at all the focus or a detriment. They have both found the person who makes their heart sing, and that's what matters most. Clay's family is great, and Sam is awesome; always a cheerleader for her dad, and wanting him to be happy and fulfilled.
Highest recommendation (as with all KA books I have read). You will not regret letting these two own a piece of your heart.

A lot of care and consideration was put into the representation of the Deaf community and those who are Hard of Hearing. While Ethan's experience and reactions are by no means universal, I hope reading his story will encourage everyone to stop and think how they would treat someone like him, and to realize that what is no more than a small inconvenience to you may mean all the difference to another. You never know what someone else is going through. Please be kind.

4.0 out of 5 stars I might be a little biased, because I LOVE Keira Andrews
Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2018
Verified Purchase
But this book was great. I loved the relationship between the MCs. And I especially loved the MCs themselves. How different they were from the normal "young and hot boy" meets "older and more experienced silver fox" types you tend to find in May/December romances.

The addition of Ethan's hard of hearing was also a very nice, refreshing twist. I haven't experienced anything like that, but I had a friend that was deaf of one ear and I could definitely see a lot of the little habits and gestures my friend had in Ethan.

I love the way Keira is able to make us readers feel like the characters do and experience what they do.

I had a complain about another book I read, where one of the MCs was supposed to be Scottish and the author thought that just because they threw the words "bloody" or "telley" in every seven chapters or so, we readers would buy that the character in fact was Scottish. But the answer is no. No, mate, we don't buy your bullcr*p. We need more than a couple of isolated words to locate ourselves and create the world you're setting up in our heads. Keira does this wonderfully.

She has a way of making the reader believe and imagine the world and the characters she builds, that I really love. Two of her books are by far my favorites in Gay romance because of that.

Here in this book I totally believed and didn't forget for a second that Clay was an ozzy man. Because KA used the slang, used the words and the expressions, not only when Clay was speaking, but also when she was narrating from Clay's point of view. That way you make your reader immersed in what they are reading and don't take them out of the flow, as it would happen if she would have written the book poorly like this other author, that narrated using American words, slang and expressions, and now and then popped a random british word in and made you go.... oh yeah right, this character is supposed to be from Scotland... had forgotten... for like, the whole book.

All in all I love KA's characters and world building. Why didn't I give this 5 stars if I have so much praise for the author? Well because the ending was a bit disappointing.

Not gonna spoil anything of course, but after all the buildup and the slowburn, I felt like I needed more of them as an actual, official couple. The epilogue jumped too far ahead in the future and was way too short. It ended rather abruptly. So that took a star away for me. But the book is brilliant. Totally recommend it. Please read it. You'll know it was worth it by the end.

I loved, loved this book and the love story of Ethan and Clay. I really wish I could give it more than 5 stars. The story will give you all the big feels - laughing, crying, swooning, cringing, teeth gritting, and cheering. After discovering his fiancé cheating on him with his best friend, Ethan, who is hard of hearing, goes on his Australian honeymoon alone. Clay is an Australian tour bus driver. They become friends during the two week tour and the chemistry slowly ramps up. Clay and Ethan are real, relatable people who have flaws, but are really trying to just do their best as messy humans. The story included sweet moments, steamy scenes, chuckles, supportive families, messy families, painful pasts, and heart squeezing love. I especially love the way the story includes Ethan’s feelings and issues with his hearing loss. I love when romance books include real life issues as it makes for more three dimensional characters and more well rounded storylines.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very nice mm romance!
Reviewed in Germany on February 19, 2021

I adored everything about this book!
It’s the first book I’ve read by Keira Andrews and it was everything I wanted to read today.

This book has everything I like in MM romances,
Age gap, one guy figuring out he not so straight as he thought, one guy who has a kind of disability but know what he wants in life and goes after it, lots of romance, hot chemistry and sex, accepting and understanding family members, and a nice storyline!

This is a story that makes you feel good, about two guys who didn’t know how much they needed each other. I loved the storyline, that was super fun and smooth to read, and I think it was great how things developed so the characters could fall in love.

I loved how Clay got to find out who he was, that he somehow freed himself and finally could explore his sexuality in a very special way. I love how patient he was with Ethan and his hearing condition, he was truly a lovely character.

Ethan was so very special. No one deserves to go through all the stuff he went in his past, with his life but also with his ex-fiancé. I’m so glad he was not a doormat, he was so strong and it was clear that he just wanted to be happy and feel loved. I’m super glad he met Clay, that he got to go after his dream of getting to know Australia, that he gave himself a chance to finally be who he wanted to be.

Another thing I thought it was great was the fact the author brought lots of Australian slangs, things I for example, had never heard before! And I loved that the “American character” was as lost as I was, and that he got everything explained and “translated” for him. I think that was a great way of letting the reader also into the story. It felt real and I laughed out loud with some expressions!

I’ve also listened to the audiobook simultaneously, and I loooved the narration of Joel Leslie, he did a great job with all the accents in my opinion!

It was a very nice book in my opinion, and I recommend it!

Nonostante Keira sia stata la prima autrice M/M che abbia letto, negli anni le sue proposte non sono sempre state tra le mie preferite. Gli ultimi due lavori non mi hanno particolarmente entusiasmato e ho preso questo con una certa diffidenza. E invece è stata una bella sorpresa. Una storia dolcissima, raccontata con la giusta lentezza e rispettando i giusti tempi, due personaggi deliziosi che Keira ha descritto senza risparmiare dettagli importanti. Grande anche l'attenzione con cui ha descritto Ethan e la sua disabilità che riusciamo a vivere insieme a lui e che rende la storia ancora più toccante ed intensa.

A young age Ethan is gay living in New York in a apartment with is best friend & Michael is boyfriend Ethan & Michael are about to marry but the day before the wedding Ethan comes home early & finding is two friends together in there bed & not sleeping either so much arguing Ethan walks out deciding to go on the already booked honeymoon while there meets & falls in love with the tour guide long story short when the honeymoon holiday comes to a head end both decide they have fallen in love & can't live without each other buy the book to find out the rest I think you will enjoy it . The ad one reason I loved the book it explains about Ethan deafness how being dear can be very difficult specially to a person who is not deaf like looking face on while talking to a dear person back ground noise loud noises can make it very difficult for deaf people & of course deaf people hate having to ask people to repeat what they just said I know because I am myself hard of hearing so great story & an Educational one certainly be reading more Keira Andrews books again.👍
